The place is amazing and if you are planning your trip to Egypt, you shouldn’t miss the opportunity to visit Luxor and its temples. Barry was a great guide. It is noticiable that he knows a lot about the history of his city, he has studied a lot about it and the hieroglyphics and he likes to explain it. He is very good at communicating and his English is perfect, so you can understand him really well. Besides, I was on a solo trip and he offered to take pictures of me all the time for my memories. It was an incredible experience with a very good person. If you are still thinking about it, don't hesitate

He was cheerful and creative in accommodating my needs, going above and beyond with a smile. My tour guide Adel was perfect: patient, funny, so knowledgeable, and with tons of facts and anecdotes that made the temples come to life.

Today’s tours on the East Bank of Luxor were so amazing. We spent two hours at Karnak Temple, and it felt like the time just disappeared, it was like being in a dream. The place is absolutely stunning, with its massive size and all the detailed carvings that tell these incredible stories from the past. One of my favorite spots was the giant scarab statue by the Sacred Lake. The artistry and craftsmanship were just unreal. At Luxor Temple, the depiction of the god Amun really blew me away. And then there’s Pharaoh Ramses II, his presence is everywhere, in these huge monuments that make you wonder how they even built them back then. Visiting Karnak and Luxor Temples isn’t just about seeing some cool sights, it’s about stepping into history. If you’re ever in Luxor, don’t miss it, it’s so worth it
Dear Madam, It is truly a great honor and overwhelming joy to find someone who breathes Egyptian civilization with the depth and appreciation you express. It is a source of pride for me and all the members of the elite trip " team to be part of this unique experience you’ve had in the embrace of the Karnak Temple, one of the greatest historical monuments in ancient Egypt. Karnak Temple, which spans a vast area, is a symbol of worship and reverence. It consists of an immense collection of structures and columns that hold within them the secrets of ancient times. The towering columns in the Great Hypostyle Hall, adorned with intricate carvings, tell the stories of gods and pharaohs, making you feel as if you are part of history itself. Additionally, the Sacred Lake, located near the temple, adds a special charm to the site, with its shimmering waters reflecting light, creating an unforgettable magical scene. As for the scarab statue on the banks of the Sacred Lake, it holds many secrets. The people of Luxor have long practiced the tradition of walking around it, believing that it will bring them good fortune and blessings in the future
Exploring Luxor Temple is nothing short of magical, and it’s an experience you’ll never forget. This incredible place was built way back during the reign of Pharaoh Amenhotep III, around the 13th century BC. Over time, it just got more impressive, with pharaohs like Ramses II adding their own touches. Even Alexander the Great couldn’t resist leaving his mark, adding to the sacred Inner Sanctum. The temple is dedicated to Amun, one of the most powerful gods, and it was built to host some of the most important religious ceremonies of the time. One of the coolest spots is the massive hall with gigantic columns. These things are 60 feet tall and seem to stretch endlessly into the sky. Standing there, surrounded by all that ancient grandeur, you can’t help but feel awestruck. It’s like stepping back in time and soaking up the magic of ancient Egypt
Dear Madam, I am truly delighted by your enthusiasm in exploring the Luxor Temple. I fully agree with your precise description of this magnificent monument, which has been graced by the greatest kings throughout history. I am also extremely proud that elite trip had becoming a part of this remarkable experience, one that will remain etched in memory as a wonderful reminder. I wish you an enjoyable journey to Luxor, filled with discoveries and unforgettable moments, where the beauty of history harmonizes with the magic of an ancient civilization. Ayman Thabet
